After graduating from the University of Illinois School of Dentistry in the top 15% of his class, he went into a rotating internship at Ireland Army Hospital in Fort Knox, Kentucky for one year. Here he rotated through all the specialties such as periodontics, oral surgery, fixed and removable prosthodontics, endodontics and orthodontics learning from some of the top solution-oriented specialists in the country. During that year, he became the TMJ dentist of Fort Knox where he treated 45 patients. He wrote a thesis on the contributing causes of symptoms that make up the TMJ disorder/syndrome. Back then the understanding of the influence of the stress system and how its hormones changed the body chemistry profoundly was in its infancy.To this day, this has formed a foundational understanding of how to treat patients with TMJ or compression disorders though his way of treating has been greatly improved in effectiveness and simplicity. His professional experience in the Army is where he got really excited about all the phases of dentistry. His skills were developed along with his understanding of patient needs. This allowed him to create integrated treatments because he understood specialized dentistry and what could be done. His practice is full-service, holistic and quality oriented so he can help most patients with complex dental or health related problems without having to refer them to specialists. This saves money and time for his patients.Associations:American Dental AssociationIndiana Dental AssociationChicago Dental SocietyIndianapolis District Dental SocietyHolistic Dental Association

Dr. Hatland has identified and is solving my dental problems.

Dr. Hatland is correcting my bite, something no other dentist has been able to do. I am so thankful to have found him.

Dr. Hatland is a remarkable dentist and person. I give him my highest recommendation.

I came to Dr. Hatland not aware that I have active gum disease, He took care of me very professionally. My condition is now under control under his superb guidance.

Great!

The Dr. did what he said he would do and at the price he quoted me. The back of my mouth was literally falling apart with teeth rotting, decaying, and literally breaking in mid-chew. /now my my mouth is great. /highly recommend the good Dr. for teeth implants!

Gentle and holistic approach.

The doctor worked on my teeth while I was seated in a more upright position. This reduced my anxiety, which I truly appreciate. I also learned how effective the Hydrofloss was to keep my gums healthy and improve their numbers after one month's use. He is holistic by not adding fluoride or other chemicals that I do not want in my mouth and I really like that.

Extraordinary Holistic Practitioner!

My teeth have never looked so great! I have had braces twice in the my early years. Practices have changed in 50 years, plus! My teeth look perfect both upper and lower since I decided to have a true holistic dentist work with me. Third time for braces! Amazing experience... Dr. Hatland is patient and kind. He teaches as he works on you! I love it!

I've had an amazing with experience with Dr. Hatland. Not only is he knowledgeable, transparent, and keep my health in mind, but he's also very funny! I love Dr.Hatland's holistic approach. We've recently scaled my teeth and only after a week we have already noticed significant improvement with my gums.

Just wonderful! I am so very pleased

He is a very smart and kind dentist. I have been to other dentists and I thought I knew what was going on with my dental health but I didn't. He even took the time to go over some concerns I had about my toddler. I wish I knew about his practice before. I cannot see myself or most importantly my children go anywhere else. I felt cared for. The receptionist was very friendly as well and the waiting time was very minimal. If you care about your overall health and want someone who cares about you as a whole, do not hesitate and visit his practice.

Deep periodontal pocks healed.

Doc was able to save all my teeth despite my not having visited the dentist in decades. I had a hole on a back tooth and 10mm pockets. After several months of hydra flossing with H2O2 the deepest pockets are 5 and 7. The other teeth have mostly 2's after being 5 and 8's.
I've never looked forward to dentists but now have a much different view.

Enjoy going to the dentist!

This is my yearly checkup after having deep pockets in several places about a year ago. Dr. Hatland treated the perio problem I had and taught me how to keep my mouth stable. This is the first visit after a YEAR that my mouth was perfect. No pockets!
I know how to do it...prevent perio disease from happening.

Not many dentists care about their patients more the way Dr. Hatland does.

You will love Dr. Hatland!

I needed to find a dentist that would help me cure and prevent gum disease. And that is Dr. Hatland. He provided very gentle and positive in-office care. Then taught me how to improve and maintain healthy gums. In just 3 visits and a fraction of the cost my periodontal pockets improved 34%! I am in control of my oral health and only because of Dr. Hatland!! He is a highly skilled dentist with a heart of gold. You will love coming to see him!!
